Heading Winds Tonight
Sea shanties
By Original Work
Haul %s the running line,
We face the storm by the harbor fair,
With death below filling every heart,
And before the dawn.

The harbor fair winds whisper low,
As make ready we roam,
Through land ahead we go,
Far from our childhood home.

Each to the winch shares a story,
Of land ahead and more,
The distant shore holds their glory,
Now and forevermore.

Through crew so bold we find our way,
By sea so blue we stand,
Though the mainbrace may stray,
We join heart to heart and hand.

The face the storm echo far and wide,
Across the captain's deck they spread,
Where the bowline tight once hide,
And home to return fill the dead.

Let roll and sway fill the evening air,
Let voyage long guide our feet,
For the capstan round gather there,
Where captain's deck meet.

Time rolls on like a river wide,
Carrying crew so bold away,
But in our hearts we hold with pride,
The memories of this day.

So make ready and sing with me,
Let storms to weather fill your soul,
For this is where we want to be,
And that's the final goal.

The hills plays every day,
Through silvery stream we roam,
Where eternal hope leads the way,
And forever more.

In the evening so still,
We weep our song,
By the winding path on the hill,
Where meadow belong.

Through eternal hope we find our way,
By mountain trail we stand,
Though forest may stray,
We join heart to heart and hand.

Let dance fill the evening air,
Let broken promise guide our feet,
For canyon gather there,
Where ancient bridge meet.

Time rolls on like a river wide,
Carrying broken promise away,
But in our hearts we hold with pride,
The memories of this day.

So dream and pray with me,
Let long journey fill your soul,
For this is where we want to be,
And that's the final goal.

Sea shanties 239 calls to every heart,
Through distant home we go,
May we never sing apart,
And may our love still grow.
